Our family loves to cook. We're always trying new recipes. The only problem is that when you try so many recipes, it's hard to keep track of them all! So, we're going to post and share our recipe favorites here--both old and new.

Notes: I chose this because it is a great pantry recipe. I always have chicken in my freezer and I had all the ingredients for the barbecue sauce on hand in my pantry. The barbecue sauce was really good. It had a great flavor.

Notes: I didn't really get a good picture of this one. It isn't because it was ugly, but because I made it during the darkest part of winter and when it is pitch black at 5:30 p.m. at night with no natural lighting to be found, the pictures turn out a little dreary too. However, this chicken was anything but dreary. It was super easy and really tasty.

Also, in order for a prettier piece of chicken, I would suggest spreading the chicken with the honey-Dijon dressing first and then topping it with the ham followed by the Swiss cheese. If you go ham, dressing, and then cheese (as instructed in the recipe), your cheese will look yellow, as mine did. No matter though, it was delicious any way you layer it. I used a honey mustard dressing because I couldn't find one that was specifically honey-Dijon.
